Truck stolen from downtown area

Athens-Clarke police arrived to South Milledge Avenue to meet with the 19-year-old owner, who said that he parked his car on East Broad Street about 6 p.m. Saturday evening, according to reports. The owner said he had friends living in the area and he spent the night downtown.

He said he returned the location to get his truck about 10 a.m. Sunday morning and it wasn’t there. He called the towing service that was listed and they told him they did not have it, the report noted.

Police checked and they did not have the vehicle towed either, according to reports.

The owner said that there were two “Patagonia” stickers on the back, a white circle sticker with the letters “L” and “U” and a University of Georgia sticker across the top of the back window.
